lutions Irom the Bullalo, Detroit and Toledo
Board of Trade, recommending the plan pro

The bill goes back to the House for concurrence
In the amendment.
Mr. EDMUNDS, of Vermont, called up the Se
nate bill to regulate the tenure of ofllce. The bill
was taken np aud read at length, as follows:
A bill regulating the tenure of certain civil offices.
Section 1. .That every person, excepting heads
of departments, holding any office to which he has
been appointed by and with the advice and con
sent of the Senate, and every person who shall
hereafter be appointed In the earns manner to any

Tided by law.

spection; and the President shall also have power,
in like manner, to till all offices not before tilled,

said, after the session of the Senate, at which the
temporary commission thereof shall expire. Pro
Tided, That this act shall not apply to or interfere
with any rules made by Congress for the govern
lent and regulation ot the land and naval forces.
The committee recommended to strike out the
above and insert the following:
Section 1. That every person, excepting the Se
cretaries of State, of the Treasury, of War, of the
Navy and of the Interior, the Postmaster General
and the Attorney General, holding any civil office
to which he has been appointed by and with the

, . j 'crime, or for any reason shall become Incapable,
1 or legally disqualified, to perform its duties, in
such case, and in no other, the President may sus
pend such officer, and designate some suitable per
son to perform temporarily the duties of such
office until the next meeting ot the Senate, and un
til the case shall be acted upon by the Senate; and
' in snch case it shall be the duty of the President,
. within twenty days after the first day of snch next
. meeting of the Senate, to report to theSenate such
suspension, with the evidence and reasons for his
action In the case, and the name of the person so
designated to perform the duties of such office; and
If the Senate shall concur in such suspension, and
advise and consent to the removal of snch officer,
they shall so oertily to the President, who may
thereupon remove such officer, and, by and with
the advice and consent of the Senate, appoint an
other person to such office; but If the Seuatehall
refuse to concur in such suspension, such officer
so suspended shtill forthwith resume the functions
of his office, and. the powers of the person so per
' forming its duties in his stead shall cease; aud the
I official salary and emoluments of such officer shall,
during snch suspension, belong to the person so

such suspension to the Senate as above provided,
to revoke such suspension and reinstate such offi

may by law exercise such powers and duties in
case of a vacancy in such office.
Section 4. That nothing in this act contained
shall be construed to extend the term of any office
the duration of which Is limited bv law.
Mr. HO WE, of Wisconsin, could see no reason
for excepting the heads of Departments from the
operations 01 mis law. 11 ne understood the ones
Lion aright, they were created by law for the pub
lio welfare, just as much as an Indian agent or a
deputy postmaster.
Mr. EDMUNDS, of Vermont, said the commit.
tee that prepared this bill did not doubt that heads
of Departments were public officers, responsible
to the people, but it seemed to them beat just to
leave to the President full discretion in the selec.
tion of bis Cabinet officers.
Mr. HOWE could still see no good reason for
maitinar the exception proposed Dy tue committee.
It was true that Cabinet officers bad peculiar rela
tions to the President, but they were not the less
reanonsible to the people. A xJrmsu uaotnet oi-
finjir had to leave the Cabinet when his course be-
came displeasing to the people, and be could not
as why an American Cabinet should not be
as much responsible to the people as a British
Mr. BUCKALEW, of Pennsylvania, argued
against the proposition of Mr. Howe.
Mr. HOWJE moved to strike ont the words 'ex
ept the Secretaries of State, of ths Treasury, of
C' avyftfid of tb Inferior, thePoeU
iT.u'Uf MrtifH.1 nnrt tne Attorney Of nerar," in the
fimi tftbon rf ,r profOVrl ftiibs'ltnltU
. Mr.tDJIl.'NDS,cf VrimouU thought the Pre
sident ought to have left to him the discretion gveo
binlby the rtptisne named in the bill. j
Mr. HOWEeaid lh second section of the bill
provided a tolhcienl safeguard against corrupt
'Cabinet etlicers.' - " ' '
Mr. WILLI AM9, of Oregon, oppoer the
amendment of Mr. Howe. - He held that the F-Vm-nent
was responsible dlreotly -for Urn sow of his
Cabinet officrrs, and, therefore, shon Id not be Inn.
lied by the Senate in the selection of them. '
Mr. FOGO, of New Hampshire, asked Mr. Wil
liams If he thought the Present could belmpeaahed
for the misrtPinennor of a Cabinet otllcr 1 1
Mr. WILLIAMS said he did not think be could,
unless it could be shown that be was a party to the
firim nnmmit.tii tiv th Cabinet officer.
Mr. I tSStnDbn, 01 luaine, saia tu uouui
Hon imposed upon the President, and not upon the
secretaries, the duty of executing the law. Secre
taries were the confidential advisors 01 tue r resi
dent, and standing in that relation, their connec
tion with him was very peculiar. It was impor
tant that their relations should be entirely harmo
nious. It was not many years sinoe ft complaint
arose because the Cabinet officers were not harmo
nious among themselves. It had always been me
practice to let the President select his own Ca
binet nffin. and the Senate always confirm
ed them, even when they did not like them.
He did not think It was treating tne orace 01 rre
udent with great respect to say that he should not
remove a Cabinet officer during the recess of Con
gress. It was carry ing the matter too far. Under
oidtnnry circumstances he would be opposed to
legislating on the subject of appointment at all.
He regretted that there was any necessity for It. He
hnd stated at the last session that if the President
should disregard the power of the Senate, In the
matter ol appointment, by reappointing men whom
the Senate nnd rejected, he would be In lavor of
legislating on this matter. That contingency had
arisen. The President reappointed men from the
State of Maine who had been rejected by the Se
nate. He understood the Senator from Maryland
(Mr. Johneon) to bold that this was in violation
of law.
Mr. JOHNSON, of Maryland, said he so be
lieved. Mr. FESSENDEN wag glad the Senator from
Maryland n greed with him.
Mr. HOWARD, of Michigan, said the President
had committed the oflence in a great many cases
that had come under his knowledge.
Mr. HOWE, of Wisconsin, resumed the floor in
advocacy of Ills proposed amendment.
Mr. JOHNSON, of Maryland, said he was free
to give the opinion that the practice of reappoint
ing men rejected by the Senate was in conflict with
tbe spirit of the Constitution. He had expressed
this opinion once as Attorney General. It was
but just to the President to say, however,
that what he had done had been done in accord
ance with the example ot his predecessors, and
this example had been based upon opinions
of Attorney Generals Wirt, Cushing and others.
All he would say was, that, in bis judgment, such
Sractice was at war with tbe spirit of the
'onstltution, because it enabled the President to
take from the Senate all Its power and responsibi
lity In the matter of appointments. With regard
to the President's power of removal, it had not
been seriously questioned since the first session of
Congress, when it was settled, by a majority of
one, that he had that power. Madison held that
the power of removal might be so abused as to
render a President liable to impeachment, but
since that time the practice had been upon a differ
ent belief. Mr. Johnson then referred at some
length to the conduct of President Jackson in re
moving the Secretary of the Treasury, for tne par
pose of appointing a successor who would remove
the United States deposits.
On the Immediate question before the Ssnate,
which was Mr. Howe's amendment,
Mr. JOHNSON said it was impossible to have
harmony in the councils of the President If he was
denied the right to select his own Cabinet. The
result might be to give to the President a Secretary
of State inimical to him, who would seek to in
volve the country in foreign entanglements. The
Secretary of State would be more properly an
officer of the Senate, nnder tbe operations of the
proposed amendment, than a confidential adviser
of the President. The same would be true of the
Attorney General. The President might lind the
man he had selected for this office to be incom
petent, and bis incompetence might operate to the
disadvantage of the government, yet he could not
remove him, but only suspend him. It would be
difficult to find any one to till the place for the few
weeks for which the suspension took place.
Mr. Ul UlvALLW, 01 Pennsylvania, sain mis
bill involved several very important questions,
which he hoped would be separately and distinctly
defcated. Tbe power of tbe President to remove
from office, he said, had been settled for seventy-
seven years, and a proposition to cnauge 11 now
ought to be approached very cautiously. He
hoped, without going into any lurmer aeoaie, mat
tbe proposed amendment would not be agreed to.
The question was then tagen on tne amendment
ot Mr. Howe, to strike out the words, "excepting
the secretaries," etc., in the first section of the pro
posed substitution, and it was decided in tbe nega
tive.
Mr. SHERMAN, of Ohio, moved to insert in tne
first section of the proposed substitute, after the
words. snch office." the words, "during the term
limited by law," and the above amendment was
subsequently withdrawn.
iur. Sht Li.miv, 01 unio, oiierea tne luuowiug
ad ditional eection aa an amendment:
That no money shall be paid f rom the Treasury
of the United States to any person who has
been nominated for any office and rejected by the
Sei ate, and subsequently appointed to that office
by (he President, for any salary, fees, perquisites
or expenses accruing after the close of the session
of 1 he Senate during which his nomination was
rejected; and if any person shall appoint or sign,
or prepare snch an appointment or commission,
or . f any person so rejected and reappointed shall
hold or exercise tbe functions of the office for
wl ich he was reiected by the Senate, after the
etc 6e of the session of the Senate at which he was
reji-cted, or it any accounting or disbursing officer
shell allow or pay to any person so rejected any
salary, tees or perquisites accruing for tbnt office,
after the close of the session of tbe Senate at which
he was rejt-cted, he shall be deemed guilty of a
misdemeanor, and upon conviction thereof, shall
be fined not exceeding $10,(it)0, or at the discretion
ot tbe court, shall be imprisoned not more than
five years; that it shall be the duty of all courts
of tbe United States, having jurisdiction of crimi
nal offences, to give this act specially In charge to
grand juries organized in such courts.
Mr. EDMUNDS, of Vermont, said he would
like to see such a proper section as the above In
the form of an independent bill, but he would pre
fer not 10 see it as an amendment. He hoped Mr.
Sherman would withdraw the amendment, and
let tbe eense of the Senate be taken on the general
proposition embodied in the bill of the Senate.
Mr. SHERMAN, of Ohio, said the President
was acting on an opinion of the Attorney General,
that a man rejected by the. Senate could be reap
pointed immediately. Cases in which this had
been done bad occurred in Ohio, in New York and
in Philadelphia. This bill was to prevent a repe
tition of the oflence. Under it the President could
be impeached for doing what he had already done
very often.
Mr. EDMUNDS, of Vermont, said he agreed in
all that Mr. Sherman had said, but he believed it
would not be wise to put this amendment to tbe
bill, and such a measure could be brought forward
after the passage of the bill.
At the request of Mr. Edmunds, Mr. Sherman
Withdrew his amendment.
Mr. HOWARD, of Michigan, offered an amend,
ment to insert In the second section of the substi
tute, after the words "acted upon by the Nannie,'
in the second section, the words "and shall re
quire of such person bond, with sufficient se
curity, for the faithful discharge of the official du
ties under snch temporary appointment, and such
bond shall be such as is required by law of the per
son suspended.
Pending tbe consideration of tbe above, tbe Se.
nate adjourned, Mr. POLAND having previously
given notice of his intention to call up the bank
rupt bill on Monday next.
House of Representatives.
The House then proceeded to the business on the
Speaker's table, as follows:
The bnuate amendment of the bill to fix the time
lor U10 regular meeting of Congress was concurred
In, and the bill goes to tuo President tor his signa
ture. The 8enate amendments to the House bill to rceu
late tbe franchise tn the territories oi the United
States were conou-red in. The bill goes to the Pre
sident for bis signature.
The next business on the Speaker's table was the
Senate joint resolution appropriating S15,(HM for
expenses of the Retrenchment Committee.
Mr. WARD, of New York, thought that this,
which was the first matter yet heard from that
committee, did not look very much tike retrench
ment. He would link whether the committee had
saved that amount to the government!
Mr. SCHENCK, of Ohio, a member of the com
mittee, said that that waa more than he could tell.
A large amount of testimony had been taken by
the committee, with the prospect of a great deal
more to be yet taken, which would develop an
enormous amount ot fraud and rascality. The
joint resolution was passed.
Tbe next business taken from the Speaker's table
was tbe Senate bil I foi the ad mistsiou of ths State of
Nebraska into the Union, .
Mr. UARjyJtLD, ot Ohio, wished t submit a
motion to refer the bill to tbe Committee on Terrl- 1
tons. ' ' M '1 '3 Y' ' 1 '
Mr. APHLfcY, Oi Ohld, ChMrman of that Oom- I
(ntltee, being recognized by the Spenser, moved the
previous qneMlon on the pansngeof the bill. He
said tbe Committee on Territories had that mom
lag, with only one negative vote, that of Mr.
Cooper, instructed bim to report ths bill to the
House.
Mr. OARFJ'KI.n, f Ohio, anld he did not wish
to vote now on a bill which allowed a Sta'e to
come in on the condition stated in the bill, which
might be attached to a bill to admit South Caro
lina. If Nebraska were admitted nnder this bill
Congress might be compelled, on that precedent,
to admit every southern State on precisely tbe same
teims.
Mr. BANKS, of Massachusetts Not at all.
Mr. PINCK, of Ohio, asked his colleague, Mr.
Ashley, wbetber this Important measure was to
be passed without disonsalon.
fflr.AKUi.ti.oi unio, said it would oe 11 me
House sustained tbe previous question. He would,
however, distribute among members who might
wish to speak the hour that he would be enti
tled to.
Mr. WILSON, of Iowa, appealed to Mr. Ashley
not to press tbe bill to a vote now. The House had
just passed a bill securing to all male citizens of
tbe United States within the territories the right of
suffrage, without distinction of race or color. It
was now proposed to pass a bill accepting a con
stitution for Nebraska which expressly disfran
chised persons whom the House had just declared
should be enfranchised. He thought that with
such a question presented, ths House should not
make hasie nnder the previous question to create
this new State, and tbereny undo the work it had
just done In reference to constitutions in the ter
ritories. He was aware that there wag a provision in the
bill declaring that the act should only take effect
on tbe fundamental condition that no person
should be disfranchised on account of race or
color; but If the bill were passed the territory ot
Nebraska thereby became a State. There was no
consent to the condition either by a vote of the
people or ot tbe Legislature of the territory. Con
gress simply declared that the act of admission
should carry with it as a condition the annulment
ot one section of the constitution of tbe State. As
bad been suggested by the gentlemnn from Ohio
(Mr. Garfield), this thing might come back to
plsgne Congress when It should be asked to pass
upon tbe cases of the southern States. If this
condition con Id be rendered effective In Nebraska,
why not attach tbe same condition to a bill ad
mitting South Carolinal
Mr. DAWES, of Massachnetts, asked Mr. Wil
son, as chairman of the Judiciary Committee,
what would be the legal effect of a failure on the
part of Nebraska to perform this condition subse
quent. Mr. WILSON, of Iowa, thought the only effect
of tbe provision wonld be to throw Into the Courts
of tbe State, and of the United States, the question
as to whether, under it, colored citizens were en
titled to vote In Nebraska.
Mr. DAWES, of Massachusetts, askel whether
It would not also raise the question whether, on
tbe failure of Nebraska to perform the conditions
subsequent, she was longer a State, and be sug
gested whether If was worth while for the House,
nnder the previous Question, to pass npon this
new fundamental feature in the admission of
States.
Mr. WILSON, of Iowa, replied that, in his
opinion, the provision would have no effect what
ever. Much interest was attached to the question, as
was evident by the way in which members crowded
around Mr. Ashley, making suggestions and otter
ing advice.
Mr. ASHLEY, of Ohio, resumed the floor, and
insisted on the previous question.
Mr. WILSON, of Iowa, appealed to the House
to vote down the previous question.
Mr. DAWES remarked, amid much confusion,
that the condition in the bill itet bis hearty con
currence, but be wished that the Honse should
have an opportunity of understanding the ques
tion fully as to what was to be accomplished in
the matter. It was a very grave question, and one
which he desired to have discussed. It Whs de
serving of further, calmer, and more deliberate
discussion, because It allected not only the status
of Nebraska, but of every State in the Union, and
of every other State knocking at the door for ad
mission. He appealed to tbe gentleman from Ohio
to comprehend and appreciate the magnitude ot
the question sprung upon the Houso, and to per
mit deliberate discussion of it.
Mr. ASHLEY, of Ohio, Intimated a willingness
to have it made a special order for to-morrow or
some day next week.
Mr. WASHBURNE, of Illinois, moved to lay
the bill on the table.
Mr. INGERSOLL asked Mr. Ashley whether
the provision in tbe bill would not be a nullity.
Mr. ASHLEY, of Ohio, replied that that would
be a question for the courts or future Congresses
to determine.
Mr. i'lNCK, of Ohio, called for the yeas and
navs on Mr. Washburne's motion.
Mr. GARFIELD, of Ohio, called ont to Mr.
Washburne tbat if be wanted to kill the bill he
might go ahead with his motion.
Mr. WASHBURNE, of Illinois, replied that he
did. He added that he wanted to kill every bill.
(Laughter.)
The House refused to lay the bill on the table
yeas 41, navs 107.
Mr. ASHLEY, of Ohio, again expressed his
willingness to let the bill go over, if the House
would assign one day next week for Nebraska and
Colorado.
Mr. WASHBURNE, of Illinois, obiected.
Mi. ASHLEY, of Ohio, then demanded the vote
to be taken on the previous question;
The vote was taken by tellers, Messrs. Ashley
and ingersoii.
Before concluding the count, Mr. ASHLEY
withdrew the demand for the previous question, a
score or two 01 members standing in tne area un
counted.
Mr. RANDALL, of Pennsylvania, insisted that
the House was not a circus.
Tbe SPEAKER appointed two other tellers, by
wnom tne count was renewed, resulting in a vote
of 39 yeas to 73 nays. So the House refused to se
cond tbe previous question.
Mr. INGERSOLL, of Illinois, moved the re
ferenceof the bill to the Committee on Territo
ries. Mr. BLAINE, of Maine, moved to amend the
motion bv referring it to the Judiciary Committee.
Mr. WILSON, of Iowa, appealed to the House
not to refer It to the Judiciary Committee, as that
committee had now more business than it could
attend to, and would be compelled to ask leave to
sit during the session ot the House.
Mr. ASHLEY, of Ohio, moved to postpone the
Din 1111 next Thursday, without making it a spe
cial order.
The SPEAKER intimated that the effect of that
would be that the bill would probably not be
reHcueu tniB session.
Mr. ASHLEY, of Ohio, thus admonished, with
drew his motion, and
Mr. WASHBURNE, of Illinois, renewed it, but
it was rejeoted, yeas si; nays 76.
A motion to adjourn was then made, and Mr.
ASHLEY expressed his assent to that, as the bill
wonld then come up to-morrow as the unfinished
nusiness.
Before annoucing the vote the SPEAKER pre.
sented the report of the Secretary of the Treasury
on the distribution of the funds of JfJOO.iMW and
S100.000 appropriated for extra compensation to
the clerks in his department. Referred to the
Vomraittee on ways and Means.
The br LAKER appointed Messrs. Banks and
Van Aernara to till the vacancies in the Committee
on the Militia occasioned by Messrs. Boyer and
Hale being excused from service.
Mr. LE BLOND, of Ohio, suggested that before
adjourning a Republican cauous should be an
nounced lor this evening. (Laughter )
At four o'clock the House adjourned.
